Why is getting to the Studio always Uphill? (when It's in the darn basement!)


From the collections of the St. Louis Mercantile Library at the University of Missouri-St. Louis

Seriously! I have had 2 "free" days with no school to drive kids to, everyone happy and healthy. So, why the hold up? My eldest had a friend sleep over Thursday and even though they are teenagers, I still feel responsible to supervise, entertain, monitor... without "creepin". Then we had the promised trip to Chapters (Big book store- think Barnes and Noble) and Starbucks (well, yeah!). One thing after another added up to the day gone by and the same has happened today! All good/productive stuff, making cookies, tidying the house, but jeesh!

I am now waiting for a shopper...who is late by 24 minutes, at this point. I might be inclined to not answer the door, or be surly, or....who am I kidding. I do toy with the though, nevertheless. Makes me feel a bit better. That and a few cookies, that is. (29 minutes and counting)

  1. It's all about momentum. Physics I guess. I find after something big it takes way too long to build up the creative momentum again. I put things off when I'm busy and I just need to attend to it all when the pressure is off. Then it takes quite a long time to get the juices flowing into production again. A bit like that train going from dead stop to full speed. A slow start.
